Workplace Version MBTI? ... BPA Promotes 'Work Style Diagnosis' Workshop

Busan Port Authority (BPA) conducted a 'Work Style Diagnosis' for all employees and, based on the results, will hold a two-day leadership competency enhancement workshop from the 21st to the 22nd.

This workshop was organized based on the BPA leadership competency framework to strengthen the collaboration-building and conflict management skills required for middle managers, as well as the organizational communication skills needed for future managers, using the individual work style diagnosis results as a foundation.

During the two-day workshop, employees took time to correctly interpret their motivational value systems and work strengths and considered ways to create a collaborative environment in the workplace.

The BPA Leadership Competency Enhancement Workshop is currently underway.

The work style diagnosis is an assessment that identifies organizational members' behavioral tendencies, motivations, and work strengths in everyday work and conflict situations; it can be thought of as a workplace version of MBTI.

Similar to the MBTI personality test, which has recently become a mega trend across our society, it can be used starting from understanding one's own and colleagues' work styles to building cooperative relationships within the organization and preventing anticipated conflicts.

Jin Gyuho, Head of BPA's Management Headquarters, said, “It was an opportunity to minimize conflicts within the organization and activate collaboration by understanding one’s own and colleagues’ tendencies,” adding, “We will continue to strive to create a workplace culture where employees communicate smoothly and respect each other.”
